When an error code is present, the board needs to be reset. Energizing the extend / retract
switch will reset the board. Energize the extend / retract switch again to go back to normal
operation.
Troubleshooting information
Checking Fuses: The Schwintek inwall slide requires a minimum 30 Amp fuse. Check the
load center for blown fuses and replace any if necessary. If the fuse blows immediately upon
replacement, there is a problem with the wiring to the inwall slide control box. A qualified
service person should be called to check and repair.
Obstructions:
Check outside the recreation vehicle for possible obstructions such as a tree, post or car etc.
Check inside the vehicle for any obstructions such as luggage, furniture or open cabinets etc.
Also check for smaller objects that may be wedged under the floor or in the sides of the unit.
Remove any obstructions before proceeding.
Error Codes:
Refer to error codes explained previously along with instructions on how to locate the inwall
slide controller.
Low Voltage:
The Schwintek inwall slide controller is capable of operating the room with as little as 8
volts. But at these lower voltages the amperage requirement is greater. Check the voltage
at the controller. If voltage is lower than 11 volts, it is recommended that the battery be
placed on a charger until it is fully charged. It may be possible to "jump" the RV battery
temporarily to extend or retract the room. Consult Customer Service before attempting to
"jump" the auxiliary battery.
Only 1 Side Moving:
The Schwintek inwall room slide has a separate motor to operate each side of the room.
Does only 1 side of the room move a short distance (2 to 4 inches) and stop? Will Non-
moving side move with help?
If only 1 side of the room is moving, then with another
person's assistance press the switch to extend or retract the room while pushing the non-
moving side in the appropriate direction. On larger rooms it may be necessary to have 2 or
more people pushing the room.
Non-moving side moved manually:
Try to push the non-moving side in and out. If a motorshaft has broken then it will be
possible to move that side of the room several inches by hand. Larger rooms may require
several people to push.
Debris in the rack:
Check all 4 gear racks on the side of the room for debris.
Do the status LEDs light?
Locate the slide controller for the slideout in question. When the room slideout direction
switch is actuated, do the status LEDs light up. Check this in both the extend and retract
modes.
Refer to the Schwintek Slide Room Operation Guide included in your owner's packet for
